Elected by His Own Vote.

Monticello fila Constitution. Z
.It is said that when Senator Jones, Of Fiori-
da. was elected to the United States Senate, in
1876 he was a member of the Legislature and
voted for himself. The funny part of the BUSH
ness is that his vote was necessary to effect the
election, and he thus practically elected himself.
When Jones saw that his vote was necessary
to choice. he drew himself up to his full height
and, looking severely 81 the presiding officer.
said In the name and by the command of the
1000 Democrats OF Escambia county, I cast my
vote for Charles W. Jones' The assembly burst
into uproarious laughter and applause. Jones
had the balance of power. and used it with con-
scientious regard for the public welfare and his
own"
The Pensacola Advance Gazette, finding the
foregoing floating through the press, deems it
necessary, for the truth Of history, to publish
the true history of the first election of Charles
". Jones' Mr. John j. Mcclure, who was Mr..
terviewed.
From him it is learned that during the ball
ing for United States Senator, Mr.. Jones hal
voted blank on one ballot and would have done
so again, but Mr.. Mcclure, who sat near. said;
''You are the representative OF the Democracy
of Escambia county and OF west Florida, and
you have no right to throw your vote away;
Senator, and demand, in the name of our con-
stituency, that you cast your vote for Q. W.
Jones. without regard to personal or private
feelings" and thereupon Mr. Jones did vote for
himself and upon that ballot was elected. though
not by his own vote, for it was found that, after
all the votes were counted, he had several to
spare; but Of this Mr.. Mcclure was not certain
at the start, and when the "J's" were reached he
insisted on Mr.. Jones voting for himself rather
than run the risk of Republican being electedj
and this is the whole story as told by one OF tn
principal actors.
